Crispy Fried Okra - Kats Ghana Spice (Recipe testing)

This recipe happened out of my  craving for some good Ghanaian okro stew but was too lazy to cook. So I spiced the okra with my Ghanaian inspired spice mix, added in some corn starch, tossed it together and deep fried. Done. It's that's simple and delicious.
The starch did not stick onto the okra as I wanted but it's a recipe test so more room to perfection.
Hope you enjoy them do let me know 😀.

All you Need.

10 lady fingers(fresh green okra)
2 tablespoon corn starch
1 teaspoon Kats Ghana Spice (or try ginger, chili powder and salt)
Oil to deep fry

How to make it

Start by cutting of the top and bottom ends of the okra(optional).
Then slice them into halves.
Mix spice with corn starch and tossed together with okro to slightly cover.
Fry in batches in hot oil for a minute to two or until browning crispy.
Remove onto kitchen paper to take of extra oil.
Yum. Eduani Pa.
Enjoy as a side dish or snack.
